Swim
Comments: just as it has recently happened, my swim sucked; although my time was not too off from avg 50 secs for 50 yards What would you do differently?: practice my swim more. Transition 1
Comments: should be able to transition in about 30 secs, this included a long run from the beach Bike
What would you do differently?: start taking fluids earlier, I had to wait to the first turnaround as i was pushing hard and really couldn't stretch too much to the back Transition 2
What would you do differently?: move a lot faster- got into the wrong line Run
Comments: started well b ut lost my wheels between miles 4 and 5, when Rick came by with his loud pace setter and disturbed my rhythm. i run the first loop but had to do the 1/2 mi run 30 sec walk (which eventually extended to 1 min walk), i must admit that the recent long runs at about 10 min pace REALLY helped - I was surprised that I didnt feel the harshness of not practicing bricks. What would you do differently?: continue running more consistently Post race
Warm down: stretching and waiting around - eventually got a real good massage What limited your ability to perform faster: losing my wheels on the run - need to do more intervals Event comments: Another great race organized by MultiRace, I wish they had better treats on the packet pickup bag and at race site.
